Naked dresses are perhaps the most impressive of all red carpet feats. While they may not always make the best-dressed list, they do require a certain breed of celebrity to pull off. Not only do you have to have the balls to risk a wardrobe malfunction, but you have to do it with enough confidence that you look fierce — not terrified — in the photographs.
Take Naomi Campbell's appearance in Valentino's couture show during the spring/summer 2019 presentation. The legendary model gracefully strutted down the runway in a see-through gown with a ruffle skirt. (Click through the gallery for the NSFW photo).

Let's not forget Rihanna’s infamous CFDA dress either. The girl rocked a completely sheer dress without a bra — and later remarked that her only regret was not wearing a bedazzled thong to match. That, my friends, is dedication.
Then, there was the year 2015, when the Met Gala saw not one nor two but three naked dresses on the red carpet, all worn by Hollywood’s hottest A-listers. Jennifer Lopez, above, bared her famous curves in a custom Atelier Versace illusion gown. Beyoncé was nearly naked in Givenchy. And Kim Kardashian West almost looked modest in comparison in her sheer Roberto Cavalli dress, because no one’s getting naked without KKW joining in.

Hair

The beginning of the new year comes with the irresistible urge to start over fresh, which means it's a great time to get a haircut.
This decade's first big hair trends include looks at every length that can be tailored to your hair texture and personal style. For anyone with a blunt bob — the most popular haircut of the past few years — you probably already guessed that the cut will still be going strong into the next decade. But there will be a few tweaks.
As seen on Kerry Washington, 2020's bob has textured, softer edges, and looks amazing whether you part it down the middle or off to the side.

5 Wedding Style Lessons to Learn from Jackie Kennedy

Few women compare to Jackie Kennedy, the icon whose grace and style forever set the bar for First Lady fashion. Even fewer can say they had the wedding of the century. When Jackie and JFK tied the knot on Sept. 12, 1953 in Newport, R.I., every moment from the Big Day went down in history for being memorable, from the walk down the aisle to the bridal party photo op to the 1,200-guest reception, all of which made national news (and drew a crowd of 2,000 fans).

Fast forward fifteen years, and her second wedding, to Aristotle Onassis, was also tastefully done—they were married in a tiny chapel located in Skorpios, Greece. Smaller in scale, but beautiful nonetheless.

And now that wedding season is upon us, there's no better way to celebrate upcoming nuptials than with a look at key wedding style lessons learned from one of the chicest brides in history. Looking to make an entrance? A dramatic, ground-grazing veil like Jackie's would definitely turn heads. If a traditional wedding dress isn't your thing, say "I do" in a sleek georgette lace cocktail dress, like Jackie's so-chic Valentino number. Lock down your bridal style with a scroll through Jackie-approved fashion lessons.

Pick a Dress That Marries Trend and Timelessness

An off-the-shoulder, portrait neckline with a pearl choker is a pairing that's currently favored by the street-style set. But Jackie offset those trendy elements with a traditional silhouette: a ball skirt made from 50 yards of ivory silk taffeta. Trendy, dramatic, and traditional all in one dress.

Find Your Something Borrowed

Jackie's something borrowed had sentimental value—her rosepoint lace veil was her grandmother Lee's, and it was draped from a tiara of lace and orange blossoms. But Jackie made her other bridal accessories her own, like white gloves that went on to become a style constant.

Jackie had a whopping total of 12 bridesmaids (including a matron of honor and maid of honor). Each one wore a pink taffeta ball gown that perfectly coordinated with the silhouette of Jackie's wedding dress. Some had matching pearl chokers, too.

Tie a Ribbon

For her second wedding, Jackie eschewed a traditional princess-y wedding gown and went with a tasteful georgette lace cocktail dress by Valentino (perfect for unconventional brides or chic City Hall weddings). The finishing touch? An adorable ribbon tied in a bow—a statement accessory that's elegantly understated.
